Charlotte Flair has been the heartbeat of WWE since WrestleMania 36 as she has appeared on all three brands.
As the NXT Women’s champion, Flair appeared on all of RAW, SmackDown and of course, NXT during her reign before dropping the title to Io Shirai in a triple-threat match included Rhea Ripley at NXT TakeOver: In Your House.
Last night on RAW, Nia Jax attacked The Queen and it looks like she will be on the shelf for the foreseeable future.
Sources have told talkSPORT that Flair will be taking an extended break from WWE. The 34-year-old has been a constant on the show for years now and she is going to be taking some personal time and having some surgery.
The idea is that she will return around Royal Rumble season next year, but if a good story pops up before then – around Survivor Series – she would be open to return later this year.
Our sources said: “There’s a 0 percent chance Charlotte returns for SummerSlam.”
Flair has been working all three brands and is one of WWE’s go-to talents when it comes to media, a job she embraces. She’s due a break and our sources says she feels she’s in need of one.
Of course, that’s the plan, but who knows if Vince McMahon will press a panic button before then and ask for Flair’s return as soon as she is healed, which is likely to be early September.
It’s interesting that WWE chose Jax to be the one to put Flair on the shelf. The former Raw Women’s champion has come under fire from large sections of the WWE fanbase for previously injuring Becky Lynch and a couple accidents she had working with Kairi Sane.
Of course, this isn’t a real injury, unlike those, and is simply put in place for Flair to have a rest. It’s believed WWE debated having Asuka be the one to put Flair out before settling on Jax.

Flair herself has divided opinion among the WWE Universe. While her skill in the ring cannot be argued at this point, many fans have debated whether or not she is over-pushed by WWE.
Including NXT, Flair is a 12-time champion at this point and the break will probably do her, her character and the fans some good.
She has a ready-made feud with Jax upon her return, but with fellow Horsewomen Becky Lynch also away form the company right now, the spotlight is shining even brighter on the flourishing story between Sasha Banks and Bayley.
